Memorial Sloan Kettering in NYC...only top surgeons there, Herr, Bochner, Donat....they're all excellent.....
As for choices...for men..the neobladder seems to work pretty well and the better the surgeon the better the neo. For women..its tricky...success rate not as good as for men.
Depends on how far you want to travel...there are some great ones in Texas, Indiana at the Clarion Hospitals (hence the name Indiana pouch) St. Louis(Barnes-Jewish Hospital ..Dr. Adam Kibel, Iowa..Dr. O'Donnoll, U of Chicago......California..USC/Norris..Dr. Gill, UCSF..Dr. Konety...Cleveland Clinic..Drs. Campbell or Stephenson....and i could go on......??
